Prana

So the utilization of Prana depends upon its function and utilization by the Soul power, the Mind and its energies. That is why it cannot be thrust upon the body as a mere gas or chemical agent. Like the Elixir of Life, no vessel besides a living body has yet been found to hold it. Fine energies and life have an intelligence of their own, or they could not blend with Mind and Soul, the Center of Intelligence and Being.

SOUL AND MIND are the Centers of Consciousness and sensation or perception; their life and being have their source in a higher sphere or INNER ESSENCE of life energy.

PRANA IS THE UNIVERSAL LIFE FORCE IN NATURE. It is impartial, like the sunshine. It sheds its radiance on and through all living things and forms - the 'Oaks of Bashan' and the 'Cedars of Lebanon'.[1]

This principle is clearly illustrated in scientific fields of measurements of energy travel and particles, as the travel of electrons in a copper wire. An impulse sent over a copper wire travels at immense speeds; but this is the energy impulse only, not the self same particles that gave the impulse at the other end of the line. Electrons move at the rate of four inches a minute, along the same wire. The push is the energy impact on the volume present in the wire.

When water is pumped into a pipe - even miles away - water will be delivered at the other end at once, if that volume finds the pipes full of water to begin with. So, the water delivered at the other end does not contain the particular drops or gallons pumped into it at that instant.

Such is the relationship of energy in Nature. One illustrates the other. The process is similar.

Prana is that energy in seeds which gives them that perpetuity in Life and Nature. We either move with its rhythm or it passes us by and we must search for its lost rhythm and life-giving elasticity. Prana, in its seven-league boots, spells: Health, Youthful Rhythm and Longevity.

The Soul's attitude of Love and Devotion, and the Mind's hopeful anticipation of Life are the natural inheritance of Youth. Why should we ever lose it? It is only when the Soul's forces can utilize Prana, that Youth is its companion. Many an older person has demonstrated this magic of Love and Devotion
